Many years ago, history came alive for me as a high school student, by a dissolute and disheveled drunk of a history professor, who loved his alcohol and history in equal measure. It was history that animated the man, though little else seemed to. To this day, some fifty-five years later, I can still see his lanky wrecked frame come alive as he told wove the story of the defenestration of Prague to us. And now, here you are, episode upon episode, all natty, ebullient, with bow tie and all proper looking, but with that same love animating you. I see it. We all see it. It matters to you... and for that, if for not other reason, it matters to us. Thank you.

In October 1948 a C-47A with Clarence aboard and designated "Camel Caravan To Berlin" left Neubiberg AB laden with thousands of pounds of candy, games and toys as a good will gesture for the children of Berlin that were caught in the Soviet imposed blockade of the city. Could you please do one of your wonderful segments on this heartwarming story? Thanks!

For a topic suggestion, I live in Central NY, an area of lakes and rolling hills, which in the 1800's was known as the Burned Over District, because its wild hills, bluffs, marshes (including the Black Swamp near Seneca Falls) inspired homegrown religions (including Mormonism and Jemima Wilkinson's Universal Friends) and the founding of Spiritualism by the table-tapping Fox Sisters. Everyone thinks of the big city when they hear "New York", but the vast majority of the state is rural still.
